• Library Genesis has published a 28 TB torrent (38 million PDFs, DOI-organized, 100-article ZIPs) at ftp://ftp.libgen.in/scimag_torrent/, creating the largest open archive of scientific literature to date.

• The Huang et al. 2015 CRISPR human-embryo paper is under fire: participants argue it used abnormal double-fertilized eggs, relied only on exome sequencing, and lacked proper controls, casting doubt on the reported high off-target mutation rate.

• Channel consensus recommends switching to nickase Cas9 (Cell 2013) and rigorous animal models to obtain cleaner CRISPR data, while debating whether multiple journal rejections were ethically or scientifically justified.

• OrgSyn.org is held up as a gold-standard peer-review model: every synthetic-chemistry manuscript is fully reproduced by editors before acceptance, demonstrating reproducible open science.

• Titanovo will present telomere-measurement and longevity work at Genspace on 23 April 2015, though their website currently offers minimal technical detail.

• A DIY graphene “printer” is proposed: a 250 W ultrasonic transducer drives graphene growth at a water/heptane interface between glass slides, aiming for roll-to-roll meter-scale sheet production.

• Lymnaea stagnalis (pond snail) emerges as a powerful memory model: DNA-methyltransferase inhibition blocks serotonin-, methamphetamine-, predator-effluent-, and submersion-induced long-term memory enhancement.

• Participants are hunting for a specific paper on DNA methyltransferase and memory reconsolidation, beyond the two already located on amygdala plasticity (2013) and amnesia mechanisms (2014).

• Technical discussion concludes that a single slow-convergence sensor is inadequate for scanning, but an array of such sensors could achieve acceptable image quality.
